Seiko's third-party supply version of the 4R35, sold to external watch brands and modders worldwide. Adds hacking and hand-winding over the 7S26 it effectively replaced. The NH35 has become the default automatic movement for watch modding and microbrand watches, thanks to its low cost, reliability, and wide availability of compatible parts including dials, hands, and cases in the Seiko-compatible format.

Owners widely praise the Addiesdive 38mm Domed Crystal Explore Watch 100M for its excellent value, with finishing and case quality compared favorably to Seiko. Its vintage aesthetic and comfortable 38mm wearability are frequently highlighted. The Seiko NH35 automatic movement is seen as a strong feature for the price, and the BGW9 lume is noted for being very bright and long-lasting. However, opinions on the bracelet are mixed, with some finding it significantly worse than the case and others comparable to Seiko's 5 series. One owner reported poor performance with only 12 hours of power reserve and a need for manual winding, calling it the worst automatic they have owned. The bezel has been criticized by one owner for being loose and rough, and the crown is described as uncomfortable due to its rough texture and proximity to the bezel.
